We describe a simple method for extracting polymerase chain reaction-amplifiable DNA from ancient bones without the use of organic solvents. Bone powders are digested with proteinase K, and the DNA is purified directly using silica-based spin columns (QIAquick, QIAGEN). The efficiency of this protoc
Comparison of extraction methods for the recovery, amplification and species-specific analysis of DNA from bone and bone meals We report the effect of several parameters on the efficiency of recovery of DNA from animal bones. The effects of preheating the samples (at either 607C or 1007C) at differe
To expand the feasibility of applying simple, efficient, non-invasive DNA preparation methods using samples that can be obtained from giant pandas living in the wild, we investigated the use of scent markings and fecal samples. Giant panda-specific oligonucleotide primers were used to amplify a port
